What elements do you have in the italian case, and lacking in the egyptian one, that makes you certain that there is assault in the first case ?
(the same lady, kissing another cop’s helmet : http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/About/General/2011/1/28/1296235341346/An-Egyptian-anti-governme-007.jpg )
And suppose the lady in the egyptian picture was very angry to see young men doing this awful job and obeying to terrible orders, and that her spontaneous reaction, a mix of anger and despair was to go and kiss the cop, who had to endure this passively ? Then, in that extremely hypothetical case, that would be assault, and she should have been tried accordingly, or not ?
